Application for Exemption/Statement of Authorization

Microsoft Word File

Tel Aviv-Toronto-Los Angeles

El Al plans to commence Tel Aviv-Toronto-Los Angeles service, and the Joint Applicants plan to commence Los Angeles-Toronto codeshare service on or about April 1, 2002, and request that this application be granted by no later than March 12, 2002. The Joint Applicants request that the statement of authorization be effective for an indefinite term, subject to the Department’s usual conditions. El Al requests that its exemption authority remain effective for a period of at least two years.

On or about April 1, 2002, El Al plans to introduce scheduled one-stop single-plane service between Los Angeles and Tel Aviv via Toronto with full traffic rights, as authorized by the ad referendum agreement between the Governments of the United States and Israel signed on January 10, 2001. Pursuant to the Joint Applicants’ codesharing agreement, which was previously submitted to and approved by the Department in Docket OST-2001-8772, Delta plans to display its designator code on the Los Angeles-Toronto (and vice versa) segment of El Al’s flights. Delta will independently market and sell such transborder services to its customers.
